The sprite for this character appears to be recycled from "Kid Icrarus: Of Myths and Monsters", the last level had a "Busy Bee" enemy who looked the same, but was quicker.
— The preceding unsigned comment was added by Raakone (talk).

That should be checked out, so that this article can be named! ChozoBoy 22:57, 29 October 2009 (EDT)

Merging[edit]

This should maybe be merged with Skeleton Bee, since they are both stubs, both are similar as per the Bee article. Just an idea.

Name[edit]

For future reference, the source of the name seems to be the Super Mario Daijiten. Niiue (talk) 10:42, 28 December 2015 (EST)

Which name?[edit]

Now that this enemy has another name, which one should be one we use? (Capitalized) "Bee" was used in at least one English-language magazine, but "Beebee" is a direct retranslation of its original Japanese name, so one could argue that it also fits the "name at the time" criteria. LinkTheLefty (talk) 13:36, August 24, 2022 (EDT)

Additionally, it looks like we've started using "Bone Twister" over "Tweester (Super Mario Galaxy)", and this bee being not only a shared name but a rather generic one seems to make it a prime candidate for the same treatment. LinkTheLefty (talk) 17:21, April 24, 2023 (EDT)
